� New emission legislation (WLTC, RDE) requires a combination of engine internal measures and aftertreatment for NOx emission reduction.

� External EGR is used in the complete engine map.

� Low pressure EGR systems are fully established.

� Single stage TC applications move to higher torque/power.

Close to surge line Compressor design area Close to choke line

Pre-swirl reduces incidence angle and increases compressor speed

Negative pre-swirl increases incidence angle and reduces turbo speed

Incidence angle is ideal, no pre-swirl required

Challenges with 1st IST Measurements

Measurement on Hot gas stand across wholeassembly

compressor

IST

LP-EGR

p21, T21

p12, T12

p11, T11

In the first measurementcampaign only 4 IST positionsmeasured

Changes between angles are not linear

35 deg 50 deg 75 deg

Solution: 7 different positions measuredDelta IST smaller for higher angles

Not possible to model compressorbehaviour if LP-EGR is applied!

Solution: Additional temperature &pressuresensors between IST & cmp

Compressor maps at 1375rpm

Compressor is operating at different massflow and pressure conditions

At same pressure ratio operation without IST would lead to surge behaviour, andworse efficiency

� IST modelling completed with throttling & efficiency feature

� IST combines EGR enhancement function with efficiency benefits and

improves surge behaviour

� Lessons learned:

� additional measuring points at Hot gas bench testing necessary

� at least 7 IST positions necessary for acceptable simulation accuracy

� Still neglecting effects of better mixing and turbine performance

� Product development going on, samples available and being evaluated

by customers
